FEATURED LINKEach month we highlight below one of the links on our Links Page for your special attention: 
As composer, arranger and conductor, Canadian-born Farnon is recognised as a giant of British light music. The Robert Farnon Society is a haven for light music enthusiasts. Although its magazine, 'Journal Into Melody', issued its last printed edition in 2013 the society continues through its vibrant website.
LATEST NEWSFRMS AGM - Info For DelegatesThe Zoom link to the AGM on 02/11/2024 has been emailed to AGM attendees. If you were expecting to receive an invitation but haven't, please contact the Secretary Documents for the AGM, including the second invitation letter, agenda, committee report and financial report, can be viewed and downloaded on the FRMS events page. Philip AshtonPhil Ashton, who served as the Federation’s Technical Officer for many years, passed away suddenly after a long illness in January of this year. David Wherrell has provided this tribute for our In Memoriam section. FRMS AGMThe AGM of the Federation is on Saturday 2nd November. It will be held over Zoom. See our events page for papers and how to take part. Plea For Help!The FRMS committee has recently lost another member to resignation. It is becoming increasingly difficult for a reduced committee to carry on the work of running the Federation. We need your help! The commitment is not onerous: half a dozen Zoom meetings per annum and collaboration by email. See the nomination form on the events page for how to volunteer at the AGM. Torbay Music WeekendGive yourself an early winter treat and toddle down to the south coast for the Torbay Music Weekend. This year’s event will run from the 15th to 18th November. The event has been running since 1970. But this year’s may be the last, as the Friends of Torbay committee, who organise it, are stepping down. So make the most of this opportunity! See our events page for details and booking forms. AGM 2023The AGM was held over Zoom on 04/11/2023. Allan Child stepped down as Chairman after over a decade in the post. He is now a vice-president. Our new Chairman is Tony Sanderson. See our events page for a picture of the partcipants and other details. Latest NewsletterThe September 2023 edition is available here. The Committee is immensely grateful to Simon Rawlings for editing nine excellent issues of the newsletter over the past four years. They are looking for a new editor: please contact the FRMS Secretary if you would be interested in taking it on. Naxos Music LibraryJulian at Naxos kindly responded to my query and supplied a link which does grant free access using an Edinburgh City Library borrower number. The problem seems to be with the links on Naxos’s public libraries page. Here is a workaround. Go to that page, scroll down and select your country (United Kingdom) and then select your library name from the following dropdown. This will display a web address link below it. E.g. buckscc.naxosmusiclibrary.com
for Buckinghamshire Libraries. DO NOT CLICK THE LINK. Instead, highlight and copy the TEXT of the link, then paste it into the address bar of your browser.
